I am starting to learn martial arts now , have my own private instructor , I am very passionate with this kind of sport and started loving it, I wish to hear more from those who share the same interests with me,MMA techniquesfighting techniques

I agree! Martial Arts will not only help us to defend ourselves but also to gain self-discipline and will achieve physical health with proper use of it. I've tried Taekwondo when I was 12-15 years old. It really helped me a lot like developing self-motivation, also I gain self-confidence and more friends. This is a healthy way of exercise too.

The US has some of the worst, but also some of the best ma schools. Go to other countries? Why? Chuck Norris lives in America. Nough said.

Same here.. I go to every Martial Arts forum just to know more about it and I just want to learn something new.. and also whats the opinions of other people about Martial Arts.. Forums is really great help for martial Artists..

You definately missed some very important aspects which need articulating IMHV. Consider, re: SPACE, whatever its size, the training area M-U-S-T be clean; free of things which could harm you.

Nothing on the floor to trip you. Nothing attached or connected to the walls which can cause any potential harm. Organized, neat-clean is 100% mandatory, no matter what size the space might be.

If the shoes, or "outside stuff" is all over the place rather than in a specific area... not a great sign.

Weapons IMHO are typically a very bad sign (only in the generic) "initially". Playing with weapons, swords, knives, sharp and pointy things are a generic red flag. There are all kinds of weapons, and specific arts which teach them in different ways. But in the generic giving someone the weapon any weapon prematurely is a bad warning signal in my humble perspective. You need to know about the people you are arming , training before you simply give them such tools the very first day.
